This will keep collecting fonts in memory, including multiple identical
copies of the same font(s) if you play the same file multiple times.

Moving the fonts from per-library-instance to per-renderer might not be
a good solution as it would likely duplicate them between tracks of the
same file. Maybe there should be a per-file level between those?

Another possibility could be to allow different fonts to accumulate but
try to detect and remove multiple instances of the same font.
